When your 7 year-old wants “to test a hypothesis”

Disclaimer:  My son is adopted so I have nothing to do with his intelligence.  He is crazy smart.

The good news is that his big words are juxtaposed with imaginary and cartoon worlds, so he isn’t our own Little Man Tate.  Tonight, he wanted to test his hypothesis — HIS words — if a mobile post office car (like the ones in his train documentary videos) were added to the train on the new show, “Dinosaur Train,” would the mail be distributed faster to the dinosaurs in their dinosaur towns?  Hmmm.  He does know this is make-believe, but a show with his two favorite things, trains and dinosaurs, well, it just doesn’t get better than that.
